Infrared


This image I took in Virginia with infrared film some years back. It came third place for corridor artwork for the NYLO Hotels. www.nylohotels.com. The infrared film turns the trees a fantastic shade of Magenta.... I haven't been able to reproduce the effects with digital to date. I'm trying to remember its title!

Dead Pan




I wanted to post these images from San Francisco Dia de Los Muertos celebration taken by photographer Tristan Savatier. I do not know of his work, but his images from this particular event are worth looking at. This face paint in these images is what struck me.... the body art is beautifully done and it appears an airbrush was used in the process, as well as stenciling. Ok, so i wish this was an image of my own painting, but give me a minute, i will be back with some original Ms. Beck body art..
Check Tristan's flickr page to see more great pictures of those west coast "dead" creative hippies!
